X3M crank hub was redesigned. Now a multi bolt hub. Not spinning this one on the hub.

Was talking about the F8x but I'm sure there will be a fatal flaw in this BMW like there is with every line.

Until you can find someone locally willing to race, maybe post some slips of your 1/4 mile runs if you get a chance. As long as you share DA reasonable comparisons can be made. Not as good as being there or watching the video but would help. My earliest chance at formal runs are end of Nov/early Dec, but I'll share when done.

The closet 1/4 mile strip is 1.5 hours away from me so I am not going out there without someone to run.

X3MC - CHF (Swiss Franc) 122'850 ($123,384 per currency converter 14 Oct)
X4MC - CHF 127'760 ($128,316)
X5MC - CHF 180'490 ($181,275)
X6MC - CHF 183'690 ($184,489)

I'm not sure how much of that price differential goes to Swiss add-on taxes and gas penalties etc., but that is a remarkable increase. For that price our Swiss colleagues deserve to get the CFRP strut brace for free!

In Portugal prices are even higher

Paid for X3MC 135k eur

Assuming good weather, I'm going 23 Nov - will post slips and interval times if it happens. Hoping to analyze as many settings as time allows, including LC.
